REST!!!
Why I organized the
workout this way
Work the muscle groups that you want to grow quickly twice per week. Each muscle group should be worked with a little higher reps once per week and a little heavier one time per week. I allowed sufficient recovery for delts, tris/bis, and
chest (48-72 hours for recovery). The sets do not include warm-up so add 1 set of a light warm-up for each exercise. Rest about 90 seconds between sets. Make sure you are doing plenty of compound movements for most
bodyparts (they make you grow the most). I always do incline barbell 2 times per week. Biceps are worked with back on
Monday so you really don't need a lot of extra sets to make them grow. However, make sure the few sets you perform for biceps are good ones.
When I look at this workout in general, I see it is very similar to mine. I am doing more sets though, because I train twice per day. Really try to make each set & rep count for each exercise. Of course always go to failure when possible.
**AFTER 3 WEEKS OF FOLLOWING THIS WORKOUT, CHANGE THINGS UP!! CHANGE THE ORDER OF BODYPARTS WORKED ON EACH DAY. ALSO CHANGE REST PERIODS TO EITHER 60 SECONDS OR 2 MINUTES. CHANGE REPETITIONS ON EACH DAY A COUPLE REPS HIGHER OR LOWER, WHICHEVER YOU FEEL WILL GIVE YOU BETTER RESULTS.
For body fat loss
**IF YOU ARE TRYING TO LOSE BODYFAT AT THE SAME TIME, INCLUDE 30 MINUTES OF CARDIO ON AN EMPTY STOMACH. DO THIS FIRST THING IN THE MORNING & OR BEFORE GOING TO BED. DO CARDIO 4-5 TIMES PER WEEK.
